To kill and prepare ] 200 to LOO beeves
and .0OOto Il, O0O hogs In one day requires .
complete system. The steers are driven into
long pens and an expert riaeman, walking
upon platform over them, discharges a rifio
shot into the brain just behind the horns.
The killing is instantaneous; the steer, with.
out even a groan, falling like log. The ami
NAL is then drs ~n forward from the pen, the
hide quickly removed and the carcass pre-
pared, and cut up ready for storage in the
''chill rooms" and subsequent shipment.
These beef killing processes are speedily per.
formed, but the science most thoroughly de-
yeloped Is the hog killing. These animals are
driven w an inclined roadway into a pen In
the upper part Of the packing house.
Men keep the procession constantly moving,
and when the hog arrives at the proper place
chain is deftly fastened round his hind leg.
The steam machinery jerks up the squealing
hog, 80 that he hangs head downward upon a
sliding frame; his throat Is cut, the blood
scouting carcass slides along the frame, and,
in moment, being drained Of blood, it Is
dropped into vat OF boiling water This
scalds it, and being quickly lifted out it rolls
over table into a revolving machine that
scrapes it clean If bristles. Then the carcass
j. passed along IA sliding table, washed again

the middle, and then sent upon a heightened
